Living alone in a decrepit house, the old man is rumored to possess exotic riches and gold acquired during a disappearance at sea nearly one century ago...

Donning animal masks and wielding knives, the malicious men penetrate the old man's overgrown property. They are quick to learn that they've been reduced a level on the food chain, as the terrible old man reveals that he's part fish, part swish, and all appetite...

I am very happy to find my film here, where it belongs. It is still playing festivals, just screened last weekend at The X Fest in Cape Town, South Africa, and there will be more screenings later this year in the USA. This was my first time adapting Lovecraft, hopefully the first of many.
